Buds and concrete

Zeus and Summer just started to bud, so I nipped off the buds right away.

In the parking lot out back they’re mixing concrete. The dust is getting everywhere, and I think it’s dehydrating the plants. Hopeful some good rainfall upcoming will wash them off. Morty was completely dry and looking said, but has started to perk up after being watered.

We’ll harvest soon, but I’d like to hold off for the pine nuts to arrive from Amazon. They were supposed to arrive to day, but tracking is showing them in Canada (wut).
